What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a unique medication that helps with weight loss by mimicking the actions of two hormones, GLP-1 and GIP. These hormones play a key role in regulating blood sugar and appetite. By promoting insulin secretion and signaling fullness to the brain, Tirzepatide helps you lose weight and improve your overall health.
